Hummingbird feed that you buy in the store is expensive and full of unnecessary colors. What if I told you that you can make it at home with 2 ingredients? Hang a feeder outside a window and watch those adorable little birds all spring and summer long- or year round depending on where you live!
Hummingbird Food
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Water
- ½ Cup White Sugar
Instructions
- Bring water to a boil, or at least VERY hot. Add sugar and whisk until sugar is dissolved. Let cool completely.
- Once cooled, add food to your hummingbird feeder and hang outside. Enjoy!
Notes
It is very important to keep your bird feeder clean. I like to clean mine in between each time I fill it up, and in slower months I may have to dump the food and clean to keep the mildew out. It can be fatal to the hummingbirds.
